Well Since I am bored...and feeling stuck...Bear with me everyone...I am posting before and after pics For fun....So just incase I do not lose those last 18 pounds(I am sure I will I am just being impatient) Then I can see what everyone thinks of my results so far.
First of all ...
I am a calorie counter.
I walk 45 minutes 2 x's a day usually 6 days a week. at least.
I Eat 1400 calories.
I have been a member of 3fatchicks since December 8th of 2008.
I started my weight loss journey November Of 2008 So I have lost 91.9 pounds(More or less 92) IN a little over a year. from 259.9 To 168.0
As size 22(more or less) In jeans & 2x 3x In tops....To a size 7's 8's & 9's. And mostly mediums in tops.
I am very proud of myself....& believe me If I can do it~y'all can do it. Just stay strong....Stay Determined ...And never give up. I am noone special Just your average house wife~that got tired of Being big and Being so out of shape that I couldn't even play with my kids...Or Even walk down the driveway and back up to check the mail without thinking I was gonna have a heart attack...Now I run up that driveway~LOL~Cause it is cold~with no probs after wards..And Can play with my kids too...And feel good.

First pic...Red tops~ One was took on December 25th 2007 ~I weighed about 240 or so there in the before and The after was took November 2009 Of this year I was about 170 in that one.

2nd pic...Brown top & blue top...Before pic was took about 2weeks before I started counting calories and I weighed my heaviest of 259.9~I thought I looked like the marshmellow man from the old ghost busters movie so that is why he is in my signature to remind me to stay strong. The after pic was took about a week ago~I was 168.0

3rd pic...Black top & black top/hat ~Before pic was after I started losing weight ~I had went down to a size 18 jeans and weighed about 230's or 220's in that pic ~the after was at about 173 Or so and took a few weeks ago.

4th pic~Purple top & Pink Top~The before pic which I hate LOL was took after I had lost 22 pounds ~I was weighing 237 in that pic. I do not know what I was thinking wearing those crazy Capris that looked ridiculous on me ~LOL~The after pic was took Just about 1 week ago....I was 168.0

All the pics below are in between a bunch of the stages during the process of the 92 pounds(91.9)....I was only able to add 5 pics each time so I am adding 5 more for everyone to see. so remember click on these also to make them bigger and check them out too.

YAY LORI!!
OMG - to see the entire journey in pictures is absolutely incredible - I know you must feel the same way seeing where you were and where you are now -it's hard to even believe it's the same person - except for the beautiful eyes and pretty smile, you are transformed!

I guess in more ways than one, you are a different person - you have to be to have accomplished this weight loss -more confident, self-assured and so much stronger - what could ever come your way that you wouldn't be able to handle - the photos are living proof of your determination - what a wonderful example for us all!

Thanks so much for continuing to share your journey with us - it always comes at a time when I need to be reminded of the reality of achieving this goal - your befores and afters have done that!

My favorite pic is of you and your husband - "Thighs" said it best, that you're hot on your own - but, wow, together you two are just too fabulous and way cool - hot, hot, hot!!

Keep us posted - you'll be reaching your goal any time now - we'll all be here to cheer you on!

leeway~awwwwww Your so dang sweet~You always have something nice to say to me. I so wanna get to my goal & celebrate with ya! I actually just got done walking~LOL at midnight...Indoors of course. But I missed my second time so I Walked super late.......I am overly determined I think to myself sometimes but that is good because I get healthier daily.
~thanks for the comment On the pic of me & my Hubby~I adore that man~Anyways..He has so been there for me in my journey which has meant the world to me.~although I think he is the hot one and I am just warm & blending LOL! HUGS TO YA!

untamed~thanks so very much~I really like that outfit too...I totally adore hats Anymore~especially in the colder months~So anything that will go good with a hat is so exciting. Goodluck on your last 8 Pounds!~YOU CAN DO IT!

Lori, I just wanted you to know you're a huge inspiration to me....Actually, you're even the reason I joined 3FC. I was googling something about weight loss, and it took me to one of your progress threads with the pictures, and after I read everything and saw your pictures and how well you were doing and saw the encouragement that everyone else on the forum was giving you, I decided to join too. Thank you so much for sharing your story with us, without it I wouldn't be where I am today!
